What Happened to the Magic Bus in Alaska? - EP. 259

This episode is dedicated to 'Into the Wild' movie and book fans. I just had to see the legendary Magic Bus during my journey through Alaska. The bus is now in Fairbanks and there's a really good reason for that! Oh, and let's not forget about my traumatic experience with the tire change. Yep, this is Alaska!

In April 2017 I left Australia for a solo trip around the world on a BMW F800GS. I named it “Are We There Yet” because I don't know my final destination or the duration of this journey.
Throughout my journey, I'm raising money for a young disabled child in Poland named Franek. Franek was diagnosed with cerebral palsy (weakness of the entire right side of the body) and he will require constant rehabilitation for the rest of his life. All the money raised will go directly to helping Franek and his family lead as normal a life as possible so please donate generously: gogetfunding.com/arewethereyet/
None of that would be possible without my official sponsors:

    I met Craig, the Australian at the Boreal lodge in Wiseman, Alaska. He was headed Southbound on the Dalton and I was Northbound, headed to Prudhoe bay. Had a great time chatting with him and a handful of other riders in the dining room/kitchen that evening.

    People come to Alaska and think they can treat an adventure here like they're in the Lower 48. The bus guy was no hero. He didn't do his research, wandered off into the muskeg and eventually convinced himself that there was no way out.

    Ugh, thank you. Christopher McCandless was a spoiled little rich boy and a complete idiot. He got himself killed through that idiocy and I will never, ever understand why people worship him so much. He is not heroic, or admirable, he's an embarrassment to all adventurers, hikers and sensible drifters out there.

    Yes they gouged her, I looked up the latest shop labor rate in Alaska $143 an hour they probably charge by the hour. There is some local upcharge if they are the only shop around, we have all been gouged once. She was up charged by $100 on the labor at least.

    Wonderful Miss Kinga, I am so sorry you were treated that way at another darley stealership. They have none of the integrity HD was built on anymore! They do not hire mechanics anymore, they just hire "technicians"! And they stubble on anything that isn't a darley or have a computer to tell them what is wrong. It is a shame! Fairbanks doesn't look like it changed much from being there in the 90s. The boys story is a tragic one! So many people think it's easy to just walk off the paved road and into an adventure in the wild, then the wilds in one way or another eats them that are ill prepared. I used to teach an Arctic Survival class and it never ceased to amaze me how many couch potatoes there were in America with no clue. I do hope the outrageous costs in Alaska doesn't tarnish your opinion of the "Land of the Midnight Sun", it is quite spectacular in any season. To Alaska's interior only the brave and strong survive and thrive, those are the people you want to meet! Wishing you a very Healthy Happy New Year Dear Lady! With Love and Respect, You are in my prayers Hoka Hey

    There are two groups of people with opinion on Christopher McCandless. Those who think he was a visionary and those who think he was a dumb F. I am in the second group. Shooting a bear with a .22 rim fire is not smart. The worst thing he could have traveled a couple of miles and there was a cable basket river crossing of the river. No I will eat unknown mushrooms and die.
